Olive Oil Dipping Dishes For Bread Dipping

Did you know that a major part of the Mediterranean Diet centers around olive oil, and has made the dipping dish popular for bread dipping in the olive oil? This tasty appetizer is part of a healthy diet and has become more popular in restaurants. For years, many people have been looking for the ideal, healthy diet and it may have been in plain sight the whole time. The Mediterranean Diet is one of the newest health food crazes because it allows people to take care of themselves while still feeling satisfied after a meal or snack. People who follow the Mediterranean diet faithfully eat a variety of vegetables, fruits, grains, legumes, oily fish, olive oil, and other foods that are low in saturated fat. A minimal amount of wine may also be on the menu for some.This diet has been shown in recent studies by the American Heart Association (or AHA) to reduce many peoples’ chances of heart attack or stroke. This is surprising since many products that were not allowed by heart doctors before have now been given the ok and are a major part of the Mediterranean diet. Products that are high in unsaturated fat, like olive oil, are among those that are now acceptable for recent heart attack victims. These products have been shown to reduce the risk of Type-2 Diabetes, cancer, and even Alzheimer’s disease as long as meats and dairy products are eaten minimally.

How To Make A Bread Dipping Dish

By slicing up your favorite bread, and by pouring olive oil in the dipping dish, you are on your way to a better life. One with a lower chance of heart disease or cardiac arrest. This portion of the Mediterranean diet became increasingly popular in Italy, and soon become known as Italian bread dipping. In order to prove the validity of the Mediterranean diet the AHA performed a study which involved splitting 202 heart attack victims up into three groups. The first group was only given the normal advice that a heart attack survivor receives from their doctor when leaving the hospital, the second group was given a low-fat menu, and the third group was given eating standards equal to the Mediterranean diet.

When the groups were studied again four years later, it was found that those who were put on the Mediterranean diet and those who were put on the low-fat diet survived further health risks 30% more of the time than those who were given the usual doctor’s orders. The fact that native Mediterranean’s have a low occurrence of heart disease backs up these studies.

How Olive Oil Used In Bread Dipping Can Decrease The Chance Of A Heart Attack

The American Heart Association has proven that it is not fat itself that causes heart attacks and strokes, but that for many it is only a certain type of fat – saturated fat – that is dangerous. Because of these findings, more people can now enjoy foods like nuts, oily fish, and olive oil that were once taboo.

The Beginning Of Italian Bread Dipping

Did you know that the bread that the tasty treat of Italian bread dipping in an olive oil dipping dish had a long history before becoming popular in Italy? The history of bread as a food staple has ancient beginnings. Bread making began with the dawn of human culture. Some date it back as far as 10,000 years ago and placed it in the Mediterranean Region. The preparation of bread is acknowledged by scholars to be about the same time as the beginning of farming, when the development of crafts such as pottery and weaving, and the making of polished stone tools began. One of the main parts of the Mediterranean Diet is olive oil, and thus leads to bread dipping in a dipping dish with gourmet olive oil.

What Kind Of Bread Was Used In Italian Bread Dipping?

Bread was considered the staff of life, long before the introduction of metalworking, writing, or other developments of urban civilization. Over the millennia, the taste of bread changed with the availability of ingredients, influences in local customs and culture, economic and climatic conditions, as well as methods of preparation. It is documented the earliest breads were unleavened. Numerous kinds of bread were noted because of variations in grain, thickness, shape, texture, and taste which varied from region to region and culture to culture. Biblical documentation references bread as an important food stuff and also as significant spiritual offerings.

Italian Bread Dipping In Olive Oil Dipping Dishes Now Featured In American Restaurants

In many countries flat bread or bread cakes, of both leavened and unleavened bread, are still prepared today just as they were made of old, especially at times of religious celebrations and observances. These bread loaves or cakes are often coated on the upper surface with olive oil and take on a glossy brown color when cooked; and sometimes they are sprinkled over with aromatic seeds and spices, which adhere to the bread loaves and impart a spicy flavor. Bread dipping has evolved to where it now has its place in a set of olive oil dipping dishes on American restaurant tables, as well as Italian restaurants.

Where to Buy Gourmet Gifts Near Me for all gift giving occasions.

Gone are the days where meat is the regular main dish on the table. Produce is often the most lacking part in the American diet, but eating the Mediterranean way reverses that order. When an individual decides to make produce their primary source of nutrients, the first worry is if they will be getting enough protein. This worry is without cause as long proper meal planning is integrated. Nuts contain omega-3s with legumes and tofu proving to be excellent sources of protein. Low-fat dairy options such as cheese and yogurt are also available in the daily “quota” of traditional Mediterranean dining.

Gifts for her for birthday, mother’s day or anniversary speak of elegance, ambience and fine dining.
Certain low-fat dairies such as mozzarella cheese should be part of a weekly diet rather than a daily one. Meat should be regarded the same, being primarily utilized as an extravagant meal enhancer. Portions that are small and weekly make it possible to appease both the palate and heart health. While technically a meat, fish can be consumed in larger amounts. The reason why six to eight ounces of fish can be eaten weekly and other meats are strongly recommended otherwise comes down to two main reasons. Fish provide large amounts of omega-3s while being low in saturated fats. High cholesterol and increased heart disease risk is the main reason why most meats are placed as side dishes and savory enhancers.

Gourmet Gifts

Eggs, poultry, veal, lean pork, lean red meat, and high-fat red meat are placed in descending order of the amount consumed in the traditional Mediterranean diet quota. Eggs can be consumed up to four times a week and high-fat red meats such as prime rib once monthly or less. While the near-exclusion of meat may seem daunting at first, it is easier in practice. In fact, you can easily consume less animal products in a month than the Mediterranean diet quota allows for within a week’s time. As with any habit, the Mediterranean way of eating soon becomes automatic. Read the rest of this posted 12/23/2016 on Where to buy Gourmet Gifts Near Me
